Impersonal "si" constructions cover

This book is a research monograph on impersonal si constructions (ISC) in Italian within the Minimalist program framework. The book offers a new point of view on ISCs, providing a new set of crucial data that were previously unknown, and pointing out many characteristics of ISCs that were overlooked before. It results in the introduction of additional means of syntactic analysis at the edge between narrow syntax and pragmatics.

"[...] this monograph deserves many readers. Readers will be surprised by the original proposals and will be stimulated to find solutions for pending problems."Jan Schroten in: http://linguistlist.org/issues/18/18-2475.html
